hi all im sean i have a 21 litre octagonal tank got 4 what i think are mollies and 1 red tale shark

please check out my post in breeding i think i have a pregnant mollie :-D
 
Hi, welcome to AA! :welcome: Thanks for joining!

Unfortunately, your tank is too small for all of those fish. If I did my calculations correctly, your tank is about five gallons. I believe a Molly needs a 20 gallon tank, and your shark needs a 55 gallon.
 
Welcome..... sadly, redsea is correct. Your fish will not survive in that tank. Hope you can arrange either a much larger tank or more appropriate species for your tank.
 
they are only tiny at the moment i think the guy at the shop calculted it wrong its hexagonal each pannel is 9inch by 21 ? any advance i put it in online it came up with 81 litre
 
so acording to a site i just been on i have

liter 68.971243
US gallon 18.220275
Imperial gallon 15.171546

is this too small still
 
Yes, I'm sorry, it's still too small for the shark.

You can keep the neons and the mollies, but the shark has to go.
